- Description: Many years ago the people of Bukoba tried to come to some agreement about making a paramount chief. The idea failed owing to the narrow loyality of the various peoples of their own minor chiefs. Those who had proposed the amalgamation sang, "Leave the fools alone," resolving to carry out their intentions at some future date. The accent of the clapping falls on pulses 2, 5 and 7 in the 8 pulse measure. Topical song with conical laced drum and clapping.
